      I have a couple of old wordpress sites that are old affiliate blogs. I currently sell products that are on amazon on these sites and sell quite a bit of volume. I have found a source and can afford the inventory to replace Amazon with my own product. So the dilema is how to turn these wordpress sites into ecommerce sites.

      The thing I am worried most about is that each site gets about 100-200 visitors a day for great buying keywords. I obviously don't want to lose my rankings.

      What are the options of turning a wordpress site into a store. I am not interested in plugins or some of the other solutions that make the store look very cheap and I would assume horribly convert.

      If you have inner pages ranking for keywords how does that work? Do the post pages become product pages?

      So to sum up I guess I am asking, what are the options that are of the higher quality that will also help me keep my rankings?

      Thanks

        When I was considering WP as a CMS I came across a few WP sites with very nice looking stores. The store integrated with the site very well and did not look cheap at all. It was a couple of months ago and I don't recall any of the store URLs but if I come across any of them again I'll try to share the address with you.

        Perhaps you looked at a couple bad sites and concluded all WP stores look cheap. I would suggest taking a fresh look.

        A basic WP store example: http://templatic.com/demos/?theme=wpstore

          • Some sites like bbc.co.uk place the most important category links at the bottom of the page while other sites will place the whole site map there. What are the benefits (or not) of both approaches?
